The Art of Collaboration: Success through Synergy is an 18-hour training program and capacity-building initiative designed to increase individual and organizational ability to initiate, foster, maintain and fulfill multi-party collaborative relationships and partnerships. It is being offered in response to needs identified by individuals and organizations who are both creatively inspired to collaborate, as well as being encouraged by funding bodies, audiences, and various stakeholders to do so. These collaborations take place across organizations, for different purposes, with various time-frames, and at many different levels. As increasing numbers of not-for-profit organizations compete for funding, sector leaders and workers need to learn how to access new funders and broaden their resource and talent pools through partnerships and collaborations.

• Achieve your organizational goals through the synergy of collaborations

• Build ties across sectors with business
• Strengthen partnerships with other arts/cultural organizations
• Maximize opportunities and minimize duplication of services

• Sharing the Risks & Responsibility: Managing expectations & differences
